I am quite unreasonably thrilled about a quarter of an inch of rain so far today. It was blowing onto the porch the second time I went out, so I moved poor Silver's chair to the back against the wall so it wouldn't be soaked. The poor kitty was hanging about on the stairs, alongside a great big box from Chewy that I was in time to hump into the house before the cardboard got soaked or the mail carrier tripped over it and broke a leg. Our first order: kitty food. Hope Silver forgives me.
